I created a company called Labfundr, so I am labelled a “founder”. When you start a small company, the title of founder (or CEO, for that matter) means you do just about every type of task!

Senior Cake Designer, and Pastry Chef of the bakery. I manage the family bakery alongside my mom, specializing in varieties of cakes, custom cakes, and fusing the North American culture with traditional Filipino flavours and goods. I also handle all inventory of the bakery, deliveries, and liaising with suppliers, as well as overseeing employee performance and outsourcing to local marketing.

I work on building our technology company, create software for businesses and community groups. I’m in charge of figuring out where to take the company and how to get there: What should we do next? If it’s a good time for growth, what part of the company should we expand? What are our competitors doing? What do customers want and need?

I evaluate technologies behind new agriculture startups to see if the companies can do what they say they can do. I conduct commercial due diligence, and source deals for our venture fund.
